### Enable the mod
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once you have installed Map Tools, you need to enable it in Minetest.
|
|
|
|
|
The procedure is as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Using the client's main menu
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the easiest way to enable Map Tools when playing in singleplayer
|
|
|
|
|
(or on a server hosted from a client).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Start Minetest and switch to the **Local Game** tab.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Select the world you want to enable Map Tools in.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Click **Configure**, then enable `maptools` by double-clicking it
|
|
|
|
|
(or ticking the **Enabled** checkbox).
|
|
|
|
|
4. Save the changes, then start a game on the world you enabled Map Tools on.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Map Tools should now be running on your world.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Using a text editor
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the recommended way to enable the mod on a server without using a GUI.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-03-02 18:18:12 +01:00
|
|
|
1. Make sure Minetest is not currently running (otherwise, it will overwrite
|
2017-10-08 00:33:42 +02:00
|
|
|
the changes when exiting).
|
|
|
|
|
2. Open the world's `world.mt` file using a text editor.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Add the following line at the end of the file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-03-02 18:18:12 +01:00
|
|
|
```text
|
2017-10-08 00:33:42 +02:00
|
|
|
load_mod_maptools = true
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-03-02 18:18:12 +01:00
|
|
|
If the line is already present in the file, then replace `false` with `true`
|
|
|
|
|
on that line.
|
2017-10-08 00:33:42 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Save the file, then start a game on the world you enabled Map Tools on.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Map Tools should now be running on your world.
|
|
|
|

## Version compatibility
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-11-25 13:51:18 +01:00
|
|
|
Map Tools is currently primarily tested with Minetest 5.1.0.
|
2017-10-08 00:33:42 +02:00
|
|
|
It may or may not work with newer or older versions. Issues arising in older
|
2019-09-08 22:57:15 +02:00
|
|
|
versions than 5.0.0 will generally not be fixed.
